|
| VarName | Text | The name of the variable.
|
| VarDesc | Text | The description of the variable.
|
| VarUnits | Text | Units of measure for the variable.
|
| Medium | Text | Medium in which the time series variable is observed or occurs, e.g., "Water".
|
| VarCode | Text | Public identifier for a variable, e.g., "00060" for discharge in USGS NWIS.
|
| Vocabulary | Text | The name of the list of variables in which a particular VarCode is defined.
|
| TimeUnits | Double | For regular time series, the time unit used to describe the length of time between occurrences of a time series value.
|
| TimeStep | Double | For regular time series, the number of TimeUnits between each occurrence of a time series value.
|
| DataType | Integer | Describes whether the time series are instantaneous measurements, cumulative values, etc.
|
| NoDataVal | Double | Numerical value used to indicate a "No Data Value" in the time series table.
|
| IsRegular | Integer | True if the time series is regularly spaced in time. False otherwise.
